Smith (died 1 Aug. 1995 in his 82nd year) (Irwin Smith), physicians, of Smith Clinic, Hawkesbury, Ont. The three men were not Glengarrians, but their Smith Clinic provided, over many years, valuable medical services to a wide area extending into northern GC. Before the mid-1920s, probably in 1915, Dr T. Walter Smith, a Hawkesbury native who graduated in medicine from McGill in 1902, founded the hospital which became the Smith Clinic. Dr T. Walter Smith was married to May E. Sherman. After WWII the two abovementioned sons joined him in the conduct of the clinic. Dr T. Walter Smith died at his home. (five children) By the early 1960s, the Smith Clinic had 50 beds and 9 physicians. In the 1980s the Smith Clinic was merged with the Hawkesbury General Hospital. In 1994 the well known building of the Smith Clinic on Main Street, Hawkesbury, was demolished. Dr H. Drummond Smith died at L’Orignal. He was married in 1941 to Barbara Elizabeth Christie. (Vankleek Hill Review 18 Sept. 1941) Dr Irwin T. Smith graduated from McGill in 1940. He died at Victoria, B.C. He was married to Margaret Hampton. Dr T. Walter Smith owned Duldraeggan Hall at L’Orignal, a distinguished historic house built by the fur trader Alexander Grant. Dr Alexander Hunter (d. 1 April 2008, aged 92), a gynecologist/obstetrician who practised at the Smith Clinic for some 30 years, wrote an autobiography called A Doctor’s Life (1993).
